developers use it a lot outside of academia,one application of Slack in the classroom is in software development [17], [21]. Additionally, thesoftware has been used to support scientific research [19], [22], student seminar reflection andcollaboration, and graduate thesis work [14], [18]. These are examples of Slack’s use as acollaborative tool for students. But, research on Slack’s use in the classroom is very limitedespecially when considering its potential in an engineering design context.EGN3000L is the course presented in this paper. The most similar implementation of Slackfound to EGN3000L was for a post- graduate course in management and economics [23] becauseof the scale of the course, strategy for teaming, and focus on Learning and Teaching

engineering class will giveus a glimpse into what attitudes students have coming into the course as well as how thoseattitudes change (if at all) in response to the human-centered design modules being introducedthis semester.The ultimate goal for the insights gathered from synthesizing both the qualitative andquantitative data from this study is to understand the gaps that exist between engineering studentdesires and existing curricular offerings, and how human-centered design can be best integratedto help fill some of those gaps (if at all). The research should help us identify who would benefitmost from this integration (what type(s) of students) and when in the 4-year curriculum it wouldbenefit them most.References [1] A. Valentine, I.

One of the interesting aspects of discussing UID in thecontext of design education is that it demonstrates the impact of design methodology in fieldsbeyond engineering. In addition, because of some of the special aspects of engineering designcourses, the UID principles lend themselves to application in this type of learning situation.These principles have been applied, with observable outcomes, in a large (enrolment ~950) firstyear design course to improve the accessibility of the content.Design for AccessibilityTracing the development of Universal Design, or design for accessibility, and its impact onarchitecture, product

feelingof loneliness and isolation associated with online learning have detrimental effects on thelearning and mental well-being of the students involved. Students in online classes are morelikely to drop the course [18], less likely to take another class in the same subject area, and lesslikely to graduate [19]. A sense of belonging in an online learning community is important forthe learner’s degree of emotional participation [20]. Higher amounts of interaction in a course,both quantitatively and qualitatively, increase students’ satisfaction in the course [15]. Therefore,higher levels of interaction are beneficial for both the students and the professors.One of the greatest factors that impacts a student’s experience in the course is the
